VESTAL — Nationwide Credit, Inc. (NCI), an Atlanta–based collection agency, today announced plans to add 300 customer-service jobs in Vestal.
NCI, a subsidiary of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (NASDAQ: ASPS), already employs about 400 at its service center in Vestal.
As part of Altisource’s customer-solutions group, NCI serves companies in the financial and energy sectors.
NCI describes itself in a news release as an “accounts receivable and customer relationship-management provider.” Besides its location in Vestal, the firm operates another service center in Tempe, Ariz.
The Vestal and Binghamton area has proven to be a “very successful place” to recruit customer-service talent,” John Fisher, COO of Altisource Customer Solutions, said in the news release.
“The expansion is a result of our success serving one of the largest east-coast [electric] utilities and the addition of new companies within the financial services and utility segments as customers,” Fisher said.
